The Apple Menu’s Recent Items menu has a Clear Menu command, which clears out all the entries in that menu. But what if your want to clear just one category — just Documents, for example? You can clear just one type of Recent Items by going to System Preferences

Until I figured out this tip, I was annoyed each time I created a new folder in a List View (ordered alphabetically) Finder window. The newly-created folder would be entitled untitled folder , so the Finder view would jump to the ‘U’ position, with that folder selected (so far so good). After I typed the name for the new folder (for...
Due to a issue with Safari crashing I had to perform an Archive & Install OS repair. I recovered my user account from Time Machine but there isn’t enough space or time to download all the pictures, movies and installers. So I figured I’d just move them from the old account folder. Only the finder wanted to copy the folders not...

I have some folders in the Dock that I want to always ‘Open in Finder.’ Usually this takes two clicks, one on the dock icon, and another on the ‘Open in Finder’ button. (Or ‘Open’ in Snow Leopard.)

I’m surprised I couldn’t find this anywhere on the site yet, but it seems to be the easiest way to hide files or folders from the Finder. This is particularly useful, for example, for hiding a user’s Library folder from a less computer-savvy user, as you’re afraid they might mess something up in there. To hide a user’s...
I use docked folders together with the List view option to create pop-up folders with navigable menus. I then create a folder of aliases (e.g. of applications), dock it, and set the List option. This works well apart from the ugly (at least on a 16×16 icon) alias badge. The alias badge is defined in /System

Users of Mac OS X Snow Leopard, specifically those running 10.6.2, are experiencing a widespread problem related to copying directories to Windows-formatted volumes in Finder. I recently got a new USB flash drive and ran into a serious issue as I was loading it with data. Some of the files I temporarily copied to my Mac’s Desktop from my old...
By default, the Amazon MP3 Downloader application will automatically add downloaded files to iTunes for you. Also by default, it doesn’t clean up the downloaded files once they’re copied into your iTunes library. You can correct this by changing the Downloader to use iTunes’ built-in ‘Add to iTunes’ functionality....
The other day I was using df -h to check disk space usage, and was surprised to see some odd entries in the output: $ cd /Volumes $ df -h … /dev/disk2s3 75Gi 51Gi 24Gi 69% /Volumes/datafiles map -hosts 0Bi 0Bi 0Bi 100% /net map auto_home 0Bi 0Bi 0Bi 100% /home … I had no idea what the map entries were there for; they don’t show...
